The (US) government is out of control. It is tyrannical, it is evil, and it is hell-bent on ensuring that every last shred of freedom, of liberty, of human dignity is destroyed along with the principles that this nation was founded on. Their goal is slavery and control; they want a subservient, disarmed population that can do nothing but produce taxes for the government machine. There is no threat too awful for them to make, no act too horrifying for them to commit.

Most notable for me was 1992. 2002, 2009 and 2014. At present I have hit a low, plateaued the low and am presently on the upward swing again.

I have chased the boom towns, and made money doing it. When I was in the middle of my first boom, I thought it would never end.

The second one, I knew it would end, but I spent a lot of it anyways.

My last boom, I paid off my mortgage, and positioned myself to weather the next low.

The 2014 low was bad. I had my electricity turned off for 4 months. My car fell apart, and at times was reduced to only eating from the garden. Let me tell you eating rice with coconut meat fried with soy sauce, is a recipe for some intestinal discomfort. However my home is paid for, no landlord to evict me. I got some solar power now so even if the shore power is off, I still got the basics of life.

Since then things have ticked upward. Sales are becoming more regular, and grocery shopping is not a scary adventure.

However no matter what happens, I still keep my tools, and my wits, and my skills to earn a living.

The coming American festivities/ww3 will be rough.

Many of you here reading this will not survive it.

Hell I may not either.

However I am on the right side.

Win or lose.

To those of you on the collectivist thieving politician class side reading this blog I have this for you:

Fuck you. I will gladly set myself on fire before giving you the satisfaction of beating me.

If you perchance to imprison me before I get the chance to do that, I will gladly make you spend your resources guarding, feeding and housing me and make it as expensive as I can for you to do so. I will cost you much more than you cost me.

Reading thru the commentary I can not help but notice the similarity in gear, weapons and training between the 3% groups and the groups below.

The ideology is polar opposite, but tactics, weapons etc are pretty much the same.

When the festivities kick off however I do not expect the World Bank to be out giving aid and comfort to the 3% as they do to the Moros. (I have personal first hand info and know people who were paid to help their logistics)

The commentary by SFC Steven M Barry USA RET is interesting as it is the mindset of the establishment warrior. That warrior who has only fought a war with the comfort of medevac availability, logistics, extended training, a salary, health benefits, and other assorted goodies.

When I went to Iraq I thought of the war as being fought with training wheels. That is the troops had no idea how to get down and dirty and difficulties groking the other side mentality. Cultural issues, language, political correctness etc.

I myself was quite insulated from things until I changed employers, and my situation was where I had to procure food on my own, live in a apartment in Kuwait, and run up and down the road in a convoy as the only American in the whole group. Security being provided by a crew led by a South African and a ragtag band of westernized Iraqi mercs.

The thing is, the Moros only got a couple thousand actual fighters and they have tied up 1/4 of a country with a population of 90 million. The Moros are dumb and ignorant, but they are clever. Cleverness has prevailed in the Philippines.

“A knowledge of drawing, at least so far as the fundamentals are concerned, is of great service to the beginner. All work, after being conceived in the brain, should be transferred to paper. A habit of this kind becomes a pleasure, and, if carried out persistently, will prove a source of profit.”

Excerpt From: James Slough Zerbe. “Carpentry for Boys / In a Simple Language, Including Chapters on Drawing, Laying / Out Work, Designing and Architecture With 250 Original / Illustrations.”

“Tools are made and are used as short cuts toward a desired end. Before the saw was invented the knife was used laboriously to sever and shape the materials. Before planes were invented a broad, flat sharpened blade was used to smooth off surfaces. Holes were dug out by means of small chisels requiring infinite patience and time.

Each succeeding tool proclaimed a shorter and an easier way to do a certain thing. The man or boy who can make a new labor-saving tool is worthy of as much praise as the man who makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before.”
